About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go to Afghanistan, write some fiction, become an olympic pogo-stick champion.

ABOUT ME

I'm from Dublin, and did my undergraduate in Pharmacology in UCD. I worked for a couple of years in Haiti, then came back to do a Masters in Humanitarian Aid, again here in Dublin, with an erasmus part in the Netherlands. Have since been back to work in Haiti again, but am now working in Dublin (again) for the time being.

PHILOSOPHY

"Sure fuck it, you might as well."

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a very short memory, so while I know there are books/films/musics that I have enjoyed, I only remember some of them. I can't remember any of the films, but generally anything with zombies in it is good. Also anything with Bill Murray. And if you get where the overlap there is, you're my kind of person. Music: That Arcade Fire song, it's called 'The Sprawl 2'. That's great. And a bunch of other songs. Books: Sherlock Holmes and ones like that. And books about statistics and data.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw Little Finger from Game of Thrones (Mayor Carcetti from The Wire) at 5pm on Christmas Eve, in a department store, hungover to fuck, buying a toy truck. He said he'd been to 24 pubs in the preceding 48 hours and the truck was for his nephew.
